SUMMARY

This report was prepared as a background document for discussion at the Expert Meeting on Positive Measures to Promote Sustainable Development, Particularly in Meeting the Objectives of Multilateral Environmental Agreements (MEAs), held from 3 to 5 November 1997. It examines a range of positive measures not only as mechanisms to promote full participation and compliance to MEAs, but also as measures which could be used to encourage improvement of environmental performance going beyond the obligations in MEAs. The broad categories of measures examined include technology transfer, capacity-building, financial assistance and market-based instruments. The report further considers incentives for the conservation of biodiversity as a tool for the promotion of sustainable development and poses a number of questions to be addressed in developing an agenda on positive measures
